Band brain heterotopia. Case report and literature review

E Franzoni et al. Neuropediatrics. 1995 Feb.

Abstract

The authors describe the case of an 11-year-old boy with a neuroradiologic pattern of band gray matter heterotopia, clinically characterized by epileptic seizures as well as normal psychomotor development. The clinical history and neurophysiological and neuroradiological investigations are reported. The diagnosis is based on brain magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, which has proved to be the most specific and sensitive test to describe neuronal migration disorders. Possible treatments are discussed.
